/Pre Amble History
I've been using windows 2k for the last 3 months now after a major system crash and had to build up a new system.
Before i used SuSE (from v6), slackware and Gentoo and have been waiting untill my Girlfriend is back in halls at university with a T3 connection because installing on my 56K would take forever!!! Windows 2k is a fine stable OS but i don't really feel at home on it.
Now anyways, back to the topic.
/On topic
I use Cdparanoia to rip the audio to tracks, i know this doesn't detect pre-gaps but i presume it splits the tracks in the correct track boundries, it just doesn't read the sub-channel data.
I rip to individual track, compress with flac, tag, and then add RG info (for when a player in linux supports it)
What i also like to do is create a Cue sheet of the cd with the Pre-gap information and store it with the files so i can burn idetical copies anytime, but still have a generally usable archive.
Are there any programs that can perform the cue sheet creation or at least list the gaps in some form so that i can create cue sheets. I have not found any so far, i tried CD paranoia for the job, cdrecord and anotehr utility that i cant remeber the name of.
I know i can get EAC running on Linux, i have done it, but i prefer command line, native programs that i can write scripts for, and are generally more stable.
Any help will be greatly appreciated, aslo any other comments or ideas are welcomed!
Cheers,
Kristian
